Theoretically, you're right, GAT. Unfortunately for McCormick, football is life in a goldfish bowl - every away fixture would be trial by fire from the home crowd and the opprobrium attaching to him because of the deaths of those boys will never leave him. It is sad; I agree he was the best...

Just for the sake of clarity, it isn't about who said it, it's entirely about what was said. I might find Plymborn to be an irritating tit but I will defend his right to be an irritating tit. I'll defend Surfer's right to be a complete plonker because basically, every Argyle fan will have...

Sorry, I really feel it was a remark in very poor taste that did not need to be made. My opinion, but I thought it trivialised the Remembrance Day silence that, now, as ever, should never be demeaned. In my mess, sensible, we had a saying, 'engage brain before starting tongue in motion.'. Black...

Now that really is distasteful.

"Could you not tell that that was said with tongue in cheek Westernmac" Sorry, plym, I couldn't because you are so down on Fletcher all the time. I don't really understand why you (& a lot of others) are quite so negative. This time last season we were looking up at everyone with a nasty gap...

"Good grief thats all we need at the moment.......will Fletcher be able to cope ?" I actually find that plain bloody silly - more than a little foolish. I was being delicate as I have no desire for the distaff side to gang up on me... Yes, Plymborn, the last few seasons have been dire but I...

Unfortunately, sensible, it is starting to look like promotion from the Championship is largely about money - usually 'parachute' payments... Still, League football is generally much more competitive and you meet a better class of fan as a rule!

Do you feel even a little bit foolish now, Plymborn? I know it's only a matter of opinion but the anti-Fletcher posts are becoming a bit of a running sore now. What does he have to do to get you to back the team while he's in charge? We've had a few false starts since Ollie left but at last we...

Sorry, sensible, have to disagree for once. Booing is stupid and counter-productive. This is, by and large, a young team. Yes, they make mistakes but if the players are booed every time they try something and it doesn't come off then they are never going to try and it will be back to hoofball...

I think that's a pretty fair summary, sensible. I can't work out the sloppy goals we have conceded and suspect it is down to lapses in concentration. A good holding midfielder to sit in front of the back four might sort things out a bit. Wotton maybe past his sell-by date and too slow these days...

I had hoped for mid table and that is effectively where we are. We have more points than games played - a huge improvement over last year - and our goal difference is now only -1. Confidence is the key going forward. I don't think we're as far off as 10 players short but we have a number of...

Sorry, Joe, that isn't going to happen. Brent has said the club must live within its means. And that, to coin a phrase, is only sensible after the mess the last lot made spending money we didn't have. How's the boy, by the way, long time no speak!

Gat, I hate to disagree with a lady of your eminence but I have to say I don't think Fletcher has any difficulty motivating the kids. We hear a lot of players praising his approach and coaching abilities. I agree that he may be naive tactically but he can learn. I wouldn't be surprised to see...

This time last year we were so deep in the mire as to be almost invisible. Going out of business was more than a possibility, we had collected one point and it was difficult to see where we would get another. As of now we are in mid table, have two league wins and three draws and actually have...

I'm so bored with all this knocking of Fletcher and the team. Both are works in progress and we have made considerable progress since one point from ten games at the start of last season. . OK, we aren't world-beaters but we have a club - which looked somewhat unlikely at times last year. Give...
